10+ places kids eat free this half term

Easily save money when eating out and take advantage of kids eat free offers, deals and vouchers. Here are the best restaurants and cafes.

Eating out isn’t the cheapest of activities, but it’s a great treat and a lovely way to spend some family time (plus there’s no washing up)!

You can easily save money when eating out if you take advantage of kids eat free restaurant deals and vouchers.

Even though the kid’s menu is cheaper than the adults, getting them fed on the house will make your pudding taste that much sweeter!

Kids eat free restaurants

There are loads of places to get free deals on food for kids and money saving offers at restaurants across the UK, whether you’re after breakfast, lunch or dinner.

Maybe you want to use the deals over the long summer holidays to help organise days out, or you just fancy a treat; getting something for free is always better!

Here are the best kids’ free meals deals:

One tip: Check the fine print to ensure the offer runs the day you want to eat. (Some places don’t allow the freebies on bank holidays, Mother’s/Father’s Day etc and some locations are excluded).

Also, remember that the offers will usually not run alongside other offers or things like Tastecard or Tesco Clubcard vouchers.
